vstar online with Winfy

We have hosted the application vstar in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about vstar:

VStar is a multi-platform, easy-to-use variable star observation visualisation and analysis tool. Data can be read from a file or the AAVSO database, light curves and phase plots created, period analysis performed, and filters applied. Plugins can be developed, e.g. to make additional observation sources available.
